Here’s the second part of the Lungfishopolis Limbo hints extravaganza. Remember – this is not a walkthrough. If you want walkthroughs, there are plenty on YouTube. But I urge you *not* to use walkthroughs. Limbo’s puzzles can be very challenging, but if you can suck it up and just spend some time and experiment, you can figure them out. And it’s very rewarding – you’ll enjoy the game more. But for when you’re absolutely stuck, I bring you hints. Not solutions, just gentle nudges that may help you figure out the solution without handing it to you outright. Unlike part one<\/a> of\u00a0our hints, this article covers every chapter, since the puzzles get a bit harder as the game progresses.<\/p>\n

Chapter 10: The Flood<\/strong>
\nThat broken box doesn’t need<\/em> to float any higher.
\nLook closely at the water levels, and look at what the levers do to change the water levels. Think Archimedes.<\/p>\n

Chapter 11: The Parasite<\/strong>
\nSunlight burns the parasite and makes you change directions.
\nThe rising water will cause floating objects to move upwards.<\/p>\n

Chapter 12: The Hotel
\n<\/strong>You can see when the electricity is on and when it’s off. Watch the letter H.
\nThe glass is breakable.<\/p>\n

Chapter 13: The Bandsaw<\/strong>
\nYou can control your speed when under the influence of a parasite. Slow down and look around.
\nNotice the handle on the end of that platform.<\/p>\n

Chapter 14: The Elevator
\n<\/strong>You do need that box.
\nNotice the handle at the bottom of the elevator.<\/p>\n

Chapter 15: The Fly<\/strong>
\nYou’ve got an analog stick. Use it.
\nBe sneaky.<\/p>\n

Chapter 16: The Gear
\n<\/strong>You need two boxes to get up there.
\nSet that rope to swinging before<\/em> you jump on.<\/p>\n

Chapter 17: The Machine<\/strong>
\nPay attention to exactly what the magnet does.
\nYou’ll just have to wait while things move.<\/p>\n

Chapter 18: The Factory
\n<\/strong>You’re safe while you’re hanging on the edge.<\/p>\n

Chapter 19: Minecart Ride<\/strong>
\nThe gears take some time to reverse directions. Use this to your advantage.
\nMake sure the minecart is still rolling a bit uphill when you jump off it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
